Dynamic Optimization of Oil Production in Iran (Case Study: Haft-Gel Oil Field)

Regarding to the concept of "oil as an exhaustible resource" and entrance of backstop technology and economic depletion of oil, the importance of modeling and economic programming in the oil market has been risen dramatically in recent years. As a result this study aims to achieve an optimal path of oil production of Haft-Gel oil field by an optimization model. This model includes income and cost functions and economic and engineering restrictions such as oil production and gas injection functions. In this model, MATLAB optimization toolbox has been used in order to find optimal paths of oil production and gas injection. Then, these paths have been simulated on the basis of different discount rates and planning period. The results show significant difference between optimal and actual amounts of oil production and gas injection. This indicates that (estimated) bias in oil production policy results in losing national benefit.
